A 95 GT would be faster than your 05 V6 :)

94-95 gt's are rated at 215 because of shorted intake runners thats why they make less power.....and that v6 can prolly run with a 5.0 easy from what i have heard about them

dude...thats just wrong. a mustang with a v6 is called a taurus. get a 5.0 man. seriously. even if it makes less power, if you tell a horsepower/mustang/whatever guy that you're driving a mustang with a 6 cylinder he's going to look at you like you just took a dick out of your mouth.

that may be true, but '95 GTs and '05 V6s run very close to the same times.

get the 5.0

cheap to mod, fun to drive and torque wins races, not hp

im more about speed then i am being able to say that I own a gt instead of a v6. My v6 pushes 210. I'm not looking to go from a 2005 v6 with only 25000 miles on it to a 95 gt with over 100000 miles on it unless i'm getting a substantial power gain. This guy who ownes a 5.0 may look at me like i just pulled a dick out of my mouth, but he WOULD be pulling mine out of his after i smoke his gt with my v6. No offense to 5.0 guys.

To tell you the truth, I think just about any v8 mustang (except the Mustang II) would burn the v6 by at least a car length to 60.

RE: how much HP?
 
explain you're logic. Obviously there are other things that factor into a race victory, but HP is by far the biggest one. The 5.0 has 10 hp less then the 4.0 2005+ v6. Perhaps a well tuned modded 5.0 could make the kill. However, with nothing other then a factory tune, it would seem to me that the 5.0 would fall prey to the v6. Obviously not by much....i'm not tryin to say that it would be a big kill, but a kill none the less. My point was i'm not going to make a trade with the downsides that there would be in this peticular one, without a big power gain. a bigger engine doesn't mean anything with the HP to back it up. Thats like me trying to say that i could smoke the new Toyota Camry just because my car is a Mustang....obviously, i would get killed.
